I’m glad someone else recognizes there was an album before The Colour and the Shape!
90s Music
From Grunge to Gangsta Rap and everything in between! Post a song and let's talk about it!
Rules
- All aspects of the LW TOS apply.
- Be constructive and don't gatekeep. Music is highly subjective, and people have different tastes.
- If the source is YouTube, use the actual YouTube URL rather than a specific Invidious/Piped link. This prevents dead links as those go on/offline or break due to Google changes while also letting people's browser plugins, Lemmy clients, etc automatically re-write YT links to their preferred instances. Feel free to put alternate links in the post body, though.
- Submissions must be from the 90s (1990 - 1999) based on either recorded or release date. e.g. if it was recorded in 1999 but released in 2000, we're not going to split hairs over that; post away. Covers made in the 90s of older music is absolutely allowed and encouraged.
Posting Guidelines / Suggestions
- The preferred title format is
Artist - Song Name [YEAR]
- If a song has a particular meaning or evokes a pleasant memory for you, feel free to share your story with it.
If you have other suggestions that would help grow the community and/or foster discussion, please feel free to share.

I was shopping at a Hastings a couple of years before they went bankrupt for used CDs. They used to do a deal where if you bought two used CDs, you'd get the third for a penny. So I'd go in with 20 bucks and walk out with like six albums.
I just happened upon this Foo Fighters CD I didn't recognize with a funny looking gun on it and saw it had Big Me on it. I knew Big Me from having seen it on VH1 or Fuse several years prior, but I wasn't familiar with this one and it was like four or five bucks so I picked it up.
Whole thing is great. Floaty and Good Grief are my favorites from this one. I'm an indie head so I really dig the more lo-fi aesthetic of it.
Partial to For the Cows and X-Static myself. The more lo-fi feel is probably largely in part to Dave Grohl recording the whole thing himself (with a producer) like 6 months after Cobain's death.
